This $399,710 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Office of Integrative Activities, under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), supports research examining the impacts of rapid Arctic change on fisheries and fishing communities in the western North Atlantic. The Trustees of Columbia University will lead an interdisciplinary team to develop coupled atmosphere-ice-ocean-ecosystem models and bio-economic models to evaluate how changes in the Arctic cryosphere and ocean circulation...
This $293,977 project grant from the National Science Foundation Office of Integrative Activities will fund research into the impacts of rapid Arctic change on fisheries and fishing communities in the western North Atlantic. The award was made to Florida State University on January 1, 2023 for research to be completed by December 31, 2025. The project builds a collaborative network to develop climate vulnerability assessments and predictive models examining how shifts in Arctic ice, ocean...
This $358,499 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences, under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), will fund research to understand the impact of warming on the structure and function of marine communities in the Northwest Atlantic Shelf region, including the Gulf of Maine and Mid-Atlantic Bight. The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, through its Office of Sponsored Research, will characterize the composition and features of plankton and fish...
This Project Grant award of $1,793,583 from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will fund research to study the dynamics of socio-environmental factors driving resilience of coastal fisheries in the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast US. The project will integrate feedbacks between livelihoods, human behavior, climate, and fish ecology, with a focus on the recreational and commercial fisheries for summer flounder (Paralichthys dentatus). Key objectives include: Using...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Polar Programs grant program (CFDA 47.078) supports a collaborative research effort to investigate how physical oceanographic processes, such as water circulation and mixing, shape the productivity of fjord ecosystems in Greenland. The $1,038,209 award, effective from September 1, 2024 to August 31, 2027, will fund field observations, computer modeling, and analysis to elucidate the linkages between physical transport...
This $136,629 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078) will support collaborative research to understand regional modes of variability in the Atlantic Arctic. The research aims to identify and quantify interdecadal (20-30 years) and multidecadal (50-90 years) patterns of climate variability in the region by integrating data from various sources, including meteorological measurements, historical observations, and climate proxy data from natural...
This five-year, $565,180 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports collaborative research on the impacts of global changes on glacial fjords, ecosystems, and communities in Greenland. The awardee, Bigelow Laboratory For Ocean Sciences, will partner with Pinngortitaleriffik / Gronlands Naturinstitut to study glacial fjords, ecosystems, and local communities in Greenland through 2026. The Geosciences program aims to expand fundamental knowledge...
The National Science Foundation awarded The Johns Hopkins University a $466,423 Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) for work spanning March 15, 2023 through February 28, 2026. The university will utilize ocean models to understand how melting Arctic ice and precipitation influence ocean currents in the North Atlantic. Researchers will track Arctic waters using novel approaches including artificial intelligence to determine the fate of Arctic water and sources of unusually...
This $177,641 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078) aims to conduct a well-constrained hosing experiment to investigate Arctic precipitation changes during the Younger Dryas, an abrupt global climate shift that occurred approximately 12,000 years ago. The primary research objectives are to test hypotheses about the role of icebergs and catastrophic land-based floods in contributing freshwater to the North Atlantic, which impacted Atlantic...
This $142,542 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will fund a collaborative research study to measure the East Greenland Coastal Current on the Northeast Greenland Shelf. The project aims to quantify the volume, heat, and freshwater transports of this current, compare them to the East Greenland Current further offshore, and assess the long-term variability of the coastal current and its role in the Arctic freshwater budget. The research...
